I called the owner of the restaurant and asked what the man had   13  ．“Well,” he said, “that man was a detective （侦探）．He   14   you here because he thought you were the man he   15  .” “What?” I said, showing my   16 ．The owner continued, “He came into the kitchen and showed me a photo of the wanted man．I   17   say he looked very much like you! Of course, since we know you, we told him that he had made a   18 .” “Well, it’s really  19   I came to a restaurant where I’m known.” I said．“  20  ,” I might have been in trouble.”

9、“How can I learn English well?” This is a question many students ask．In my opinion, the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart．If you can recite the text and write it out, you’ve learned it fairly well．And if you can tell, in your own words, what the lesson says you’re a very successful learner indeed．Your English will be quite perfect.

This is a difficult task．However, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, you’ll find it not half so hard as you might have thought．

Learning this way, you will make rapid progress．Of course, writing is also necessary．It helps you a lot on our way to success in English．

Equally important is to feel the language．You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news．When using English, try to forget your mother tongue．Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way．So, never try to see English through translation.

1．In the writer’s opinion, the most effective way in learning English is ____.

       A．to practise speaking, writing and feeling it

       B．to forget your own native language

       C．to translate everything into his own language

       D．to memorize the English words and grammatical rules

2．“Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way.” This sentence means that memorizing your own language can ________.

       A．help you to study English well               B．stop you mastering English

       C．make English easy to learn                    D．help you notice mistakes

3．Equally important is to feel the language．“to feel the language” here means_____．

       A．to get a knowledge of English by touching

       B．to be able to read and write English

       C．to translate English into your own by imagining

    D．to be able to experience the rich sensation of the language

8、Trees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood.

Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important．Man wants to make money from trees, so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had．And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees．So the forests slowly disappear.

This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees．The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-make the rain in-and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil．When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.

1．The most important points of trees to man is ________.

       A．they help him to make money               B．they give him cool

       C．they give him wood and other things      D．they help him to stop drought and floods

2．In many places forests slowly disappear because ________ .

       A．many trees have been cut down by man

       B．new trees are not well looked after

       C．man has not paid enough attention to planting trees

       D．all the above

3．Land becomes desert after all trees are cut down because ________ .

       A．roots of trees break up the soil   

       B．there are too many rainfalls

       C．strong winds bring a lot of sand

       D．there are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil.

4．Which title best fits the passage?

       A．Trees and Man                                    B．The Function of Tree Wood

       C．How do People do with Trees?              D．The Usage of Tree Roots

7、It was a winter morning，just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005．While most people were warming up their cars，Trevor，my husband，had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work．On arrival，he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does．After putting in 10 hours of labor，he returned to find his bike gone.

The bike，a black Kona 18 speed， was our only transport．Trevor used it to get to work， putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family．And the bike was also used to get groceries （食品杂货）， saving us from having to walk along long distances from where we live.

I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story．Shortly after that， several people in our area offered to help．One wonderful stranger even bought a bike， then called my husband to pick it up．Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job．It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.

 People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another， but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so．This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity （人性） as a whole．And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we， too， can share with others．No matter how big or how small， an act of kindness shows that someone cares．And the results can be everlasting.

1．Why was the bike so important to the couple？

       A．They used it for work and daily life.      B．It was their only possession（财产）.

       C．It was a nice Kona 18 speed.                D．The man‘s job was bike racing.

2．We can infer from the passage that __________.

       A．the couple worked 60 hours a week       B．people were busy before Christmas

       C．the stranger brought over the bike         D．life was hard for the young family

3．How did people get to know the couple‘s problem？

       A．From a stranger.                                  B．From a newspaper.

       C．From TV news                                    D．From radio broadcasts.

4．What do the couple learn from their experience？

       A．Strangers are usually of little help.         B．One should take care of their bike.

       C．News reports make people famous.       D．An act of kindness can mean a lot.

5．From this story， we can see humanity is __________.

    A．selfish                B．commercial          C．kind                    D．cold-hearted

6、Before coming to France，I always thought that French people wear formal clothes．But， when I arrived in Paris，I came to know why France could remain the lead in world fashion and Paris could attract so many designers from all over the world to come.

On the boulevard of Champs-elysees， there are many fashion shops of famous brands， such as Chanel，Dior，Pierre Cardin．In daily life，however，most of Parisians never wear clothes like those on the super models．On the opposite，I found people in Paris often dress in very simple designs and usually in dark.

Such situation doesn‘t affect French designers to create more and more new styles．But I would say people in Paris dress more formally than those in the rest of France．In other French cities，what people wear are usually casual dresses，such as T-shirts and jeans.

French people act as the fashion leaders，but they accept other clothes styles as well．Montpellier， the city I live in， is in southern France near the Mediterranean Sea．Here are many immigrants（移民） from Algeria， Morocco and other African countries．The Arabian and African cultures are influential（有影响的）in this city．Therefore，you can find a lot of young people dress in the North African style.

1．France could remain the lead in world fashion and Paris could attract so many designers from all over the world because          .

       A．French people never wear fashionable clothes

       B．French designers are creative

       C．French people accept fashionable clothes and other styles

       D．both B and C

2．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？

       A．The majority of Parisians always wear formal clothes.

       B．Most of Parisians never wear fashionable clothes.

       C．Parisians usually wear casual dresses like T- shirts and jeans.

       D．Most Parisians often dress in simple designs and usually in dark.

3．The underlined part “boulevard of Champs-elysees” possibly is             .

       A．a name of a famous street in Paris         B．a name of a famous person in Paris

    C．a name of a famous city in France         D．a name of a famous brand in France

5、It was Monday．Mrs. Smith's dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house. Considering that there was no better way．Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it: “Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently:“ Take this to the butcher（屠夫）．and he's going to give you your lunch today.”

4、Not many years ago，a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the south of England．He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries．When he was seventy-five，he gave ￡ 12，000 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children‘s playground.
